-
In Adobe Analytics, go to Admin > Reporting Activity Manager.
A list of your enabled base report suites is displayed.
-
(Optional) You can search or filter the list of report suites:
-
Use the search field to search for a specific report suite. Begin typing the report suite name or ID and the list of report suites updates as you type.
-
Select the Filter icon to expand the list of filter options. You can filter by Favorites or Status.
To mark a report suite as a favorite, select the star icon to the left of the report suite name.

View utilization information about each report suite. The data shown in the table represents the reporting activity for the report suite at the time the page was last loaded.
The following columns are available:
table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 4-row-2 5-row-2 6-row-2 layout-auto UI Element Description Report Suite The base report suite whose reporting activity you are monitoring. Virtual report suites Shows all virtual report suites that feed into this base report suite. Virtual report suites add complexity to reporting requests due to additional levels of applied filtering and segmentation. All requests that are coming from the virtual report suites are combined into the base report suite. Capacity utilization The percentage of the report suite’s reporting capacity that is being used, in real time.
Note A usage capacity that is at 100% doesn’t necessarily suggest that you should immediately start cancelling reporting requests. 100% usage capacity can be healthy if the average wait time is reasonable. On the other hand, 100% usage capacity could suggest a problem if the number of queued requests is also growing.
Queued requests The number of requests waiting to be processed. Queue wait time The average wait time before requests begin to process. Status The possible statuses are:
- Active (blue): Reports have been run on the report suite in the last 2 hours. The data shown in the table represents the reporting capacity for the report suite at the time the page was last loaded.
- Inactive (gray): No reports have been run on the report suite in the last 2 hours, so no data is displayed for the report suite.
